It is the best value in the best location in Palm Springs' exclusive Vista Las Palmas neighborhood. It is walking distance to downtown, and the mountain views can't be beat!!! No power lines obstructing the beautiful views.
Quiet and Relaxing:
We don't experience the loud airplane noise of other neighborhoods (Racquet Club, Movie Colony, Sunrise Park etc)
This pristine Midcentury Modern vacation home has a huge private backyard and unbeatable unobstructed South and West facing mountain views, including the Dry Falls. Relax and enjoy the ultimate in Palm Springs indoor/outdoor living. Picture yourself enjoying a cocktail and toasting the warm Palm Springs sun as it sets behind the mountains.
The Gorgeous Midcentury House:
This restored Midcentury Modern Krisel designed Palm Springs Vacation home was built by the celebrated Alexander Construction Co. in 1960. Located in famous Vista Las Palmas, it has spectacular mountain views, desert landscaping, a huge swimming pool and an in-ground spa. Inside you'll find the famous Palmer and Krisel open floor plan, perfect for entertaining with family and friends, vaulted tongue and groove ceilings, entire walls of glass doors opening onto the patio and pool area, and Mid-Century furnishings.
The Kitchen and the Living Area:
The spacious kitchen is fully equipped. Enjoy gorgeous mountain views out of the clerestory windows, which fill the room with light and showcase the mountain ridge-line. The kitchen and dining room are open to the expansive living room, with its walls of sliding glass doors that let the light pour in and reveal and lead to the private pool and beautiful outdoor living spaces.
Enjoy movies on the 65” Samsung QLED SMART flat screen TV with SONOS system and home theater surround sound. Free WiFi access is available from anywhere in the house and yard.
The Bedrooms and Bathrooms:
Each bedroom has a large Samsung QLED SMART flat screen TV, luxurious linens and mattress. Each bathroom has luxurious towels and individually wrapped soap and shampoo.

The Large Private Backyard with Stunning Views:
Outdoors, your private oasis includes multiple lounging, dining and seating areas. Enjoy the fantastic mountain views from the sleek and modern lounge chairs, the covered pool side patio or the pavilion. Relax in the pool and spa. The pool is spacious and has spectacular views of the mountains. The yard also has a bocce ball court from which you could enjoy the panoramic mountain views. Day or night, take a nap on the hammock. At night, under the star-filled moonlit sky, enjoy a tranquil moment by the Fire Pit.
The backyard is completely enclosed and private. This home is located on the closest street to the mountains yet the hikers cannot peer into this particular yard.
Picture yourself enjoying cocktails or sharing a bottle of wine or champagne and toasting the warm Palm Springs sun as it sets behind the mountains. A great escape for just the two of you, or perfect for entertaining your entire group!
The Amazing Neighborhood and Street:
The neighborhood is a classic Mid-Century Modern area with every house looking authentic and ready for a photo shoot. Vista Las Palmas is the only neighborhood in Palm Springs without power lines blocking the view of the beautiful mountains and palm trees. In addition, this street is so close to the mountains you could feel its presence, which is great for meditation and yoga - or a SELFIE. Its proximity to the base of the San Jacinto Mountains keeps it sheltered from much of the wind and means a quicker escape from the late afternoon sun. NO AIRPLANE NOISE
The location is close (1 mile or a 20 minute walk) to wonderful restaurants, the Uptown Design District and Downtown Palm Springs. It is also close to hiking, golf, tennis and a quick drive to Palm Desert. Whether your ideal Palm Springs vacation includes sports, shopping or relaxing, this home is convenient to all of it. The house is located within walking distance to the Elvis Honeymoon house and the Kaufman Desert house.

Always a pleasure to stay here. The house is amazing and fully stocked with everything. The backyard has it all including the amazing views. Thanks for another relaxing stay.
We loved our stay at this home. The home is in a great location. We walked to the center of downtown every day. The kitchen was well stocked. The outdoor living area was ideally set up. The pool was a great size and very clean. We have rented many homes in Palm Springs over the years and this one has been our favorite.
This was our second stay at this beautiful home and it has everything you could want and need. We had 3 generations that enjoyed the outdoor games, pool, spa, outdoor and indoor space, proximity to hiking and city walking. A perfect stay!
We just had a lovely 10 days in this lovely home (we’ve been renting this home now for many consecutive years and have already booked for next). The home is beautiful, spotless, well appointed, and comfortable in every respect. I highly recommend it.
This area of Palm Springs is so special...quiet...walkable to business area...great restaurant...the house is private...everything you would want in a vacation house is there...you won't be disappointed...
Really loved this property. Absolutely beautiful house and grounds with gorgeous views of the mountains. Also a big fan of this serene neighborhood. Host was so gracious leading up to my stay and throughout. Would happily stay here again.
The home, the outdoor spaces, amenities, location, views and experience were top notch all the way! We have stayed many places in the area and this is the best. Already planning our return. A family, ranging in age from 6 to 82, all declared it a stellar family vacation!
We had a fantastic stay at this property. The kitchen was well stocked, house comfortable and clean, and the pool and outdoor spaces were very nice. The mountain views are stunning, and proximity to town a plus. Neighbors were very friendly on our morning walks. The manager and local contact were great to work with, and very communicative.
What a lovely and welcoming home! It was perfect for our family - a beautiful property with great amenities and in an excellent location. And the attentiveness from both the owner and the property manager was stellar. Highly recommend!
Our stay at Steve’s house was perfect. The house is tastefully decorated and absolutely immaculate. The kitchen was the most well-stocked kitchen of any rental I’ve ever stayed in. We thoroughly enjoyed spending time in the yard which offered multiple options for sun lovers and shade seekers. All the outdoor furniture was super comfortable, and the best part is, you can sit back and gaze upon the San Jacinto mountains as you enjoy the yard and pool! Overall, it is a wonderful place, and we hope to visit again soon!
This is a beautiful home, meticulously maintained, and very comfortable in all respects. We’ve just completed our 2nd rental in this property and have already reserved the 3rd for next year. It’s a treasure in Palm Springs
Perfectly restored without losing key architectural elements like the natural wood ceilings, clerestory windows, carport, pool access from the master bath, etc. Perfect furnishings that enhance the design without drawing too much attention. Perfect pool location that allows use in the mountain’s afternoon shadow. Perfect neighborhood for walking and architecture viewing.
Our family has stayed at this house many times over the years. There is nothing that the house lacks, and it is perfectly clean and organized, but also beautifully designed and decorated. The pool is perfect, the outdoor lounge and dining areas are very comfortable, the grill, bocce court and firepit are all that you could want for your outdoor fun. We love waking to the bird song under the warm glow of the sunrise on the hills, and listening to the coyotes howling from the mountainside after dark, while star gazing. It feels like you are in a remote, peaceful area at the end of the city, yet it's only minutes away from the shops and restaurants.We'll return again and again.
Thus property is amazing! Highly recommended! The entire process from check-in to check-out was seamless! Both the owner and the property manger are very involved throughout the process! We will wife sure stay at the property during our next visit to Palm Springs! Thanks to Bib and Steve!
We had a wonderful stay at this home located in the peaceful and scenic Vista Las Palmas neighborhood, conveniently close to downtown. The views of the San Jacinto mountains were stunning. The interior was beautifully decorated, impeccably clean and more than equipped with all the essentials. The expansive backyard with a pool and spa was a highlight, featuring multiple seating areas, a fireplace, BBQ, Bocce court and cornhole. Bob, the property manager, was exceptional— a pleasure to meet and work with. Communication with Steve, the owner, was seamless. Felt like a private resort! Can’t wait to return.
